Connecticut Route 94
State highway in central Connecticut, US
Route 94 is an east–west state highway in Connecticut running for 9.33 miles (15.02 km) from Route 2 (Exit 8) in Glastonbury to Route 85 in Hebron.
Route description
Route 94 officially begins as the Exit 8 offramp of eastbound Route 2 in western Glastonbury (in the Addison section of town). It turns east on Hebron Avenue and crosses under the Route 17 expressway without an interchange, and then under Route 2 (about 330 yards (300 m) east of the end of the eastbound offramp). Hebron Avenue continues eastward through Glastonbury for another 3.75 miles (6.04 km), meeting with Route 83 (which heads for Manchester and East Glastonbury). After another 1.1 miles (1.8 km), it crosses Roaring Brook and becomes mainly a rural collector road as it heads towards the town of Hebron. Along the way it passes by the Macclain Earth Products factory as it traverses the rural part of Glastonbury. Route 94 crosses into the town of Hebron about 3.3 miles (5.3 km) east of Roaring Brook becoming known as Gilead Street, where it ends 0.8 miles (1.3 km) east of the town line at an intersection with Route 85. Gilead Street continues further east as southbound Route 85 towards the town center of Hebron.
Route 94 is designated the 94th Infantry Division Memorial Highway from Route 2 to the Glastonbury-Hebron town line.

Why this record matters
“Connecticut Route 94” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Connecticut, Route and State provides the most credible route into that argument.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 5, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2246781. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
